A crossover lane allows one to two lanes of traffic
to be shifted to lanes on the opposite side of the freeway through the
construction work zones. Freight trucks are excluded from using the freeway
through the construction work zones. The new lane configuration will occur on southbound I-15 from Oak Hill Road to 1.5
miles north of State Route 138. Traffic will be switched to run through the
median.

One
of three lanes will be moved to the northbound I-15 median and the other two
lanes will be moved to the southbound I-15 median. Construction will take place
on the existing lanes of southbound I-15.

The
new traffic configuration, which will be in place for several months, will
allow the project work to continue quickly and efficiently. A 60 MPH speed limit will be enforced within the construction
limits; in addition, the existing median barriers will be upgraded to concrete
barriers to reduce the risk of vehicle crossover collisions and maintenance
pullouts will be constructed to reduce the exposure of maintenance personnel to
traffic. Delays will exist throughout the project limits, so please plan your
travel accordingly.
